Plastic Bushing for Rear Window Tray ?

71 Coupe : Installing my rear window storage tray & need the two small " top hat "-style plastic bushings used at the pivot points. Can't find a reference. Part # ? Where can I buy them?
Any help appreciated, Tim

Will the plastic bushings that the wiper door linkage rides on work?

I found these at the local hardware store. Cut them down and they might work. They came in all different size's.

Hi,
The AIM describes it as a spacer.
#3922010.
I'm not sure if it's the same as the bushing in the wiper door mechanism or not… those aren't called out in the AIM.
Regards,
Alan

Lowe's, Home Depot or any good Hardware store would have a assortment of nylon washers

I am guessing that they are the same as the wiper door linkage. Lou.

The 1970 AIM shows they are the same bushings as wiper door mech.
